Do note that perf is not the right API for those control bits. If you
never plan to expose those, that's fine. If you do, you'll likely need a
parallel API (your own device) for accessing that. Please consider if
using separate APIs for reading/writing this resource is what you want
and mention these considerations in your future changelog.

Also very much depends on perf being there.

The enforce part seems dubious, perf is purely about observing state it
doesn't enforce anything. Also this help text could do with expanding in
general.

Not going to happen, RAPL registers its own pmu (wrongly, see below),
with that it (should) get its own perf_event_attr::type and thus should
have its own ::config space, you do not get to pollute the
PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE config space.

Currently there isn't a way to expose the events in sysfs, but we do
want that, its mostly a matter of getting all involved parties to agree
on a format and implementing it.

0x62[AD] is useless, please use proper names.

Are you sure? (x & TIME_UNIT_MASK) >> TIME_UNIT_OFFSET == 0.
You either want a mask of 0xF0000, or an offset of 0x0c.

You could use the rapl_domain_id as your ::config space.

Please see the comment down by rapl_check_unit(), this is just too wrong
to live.

So I had to get the Intel SDM because your driver lacks all useful
information, and I learned that the RAPL status MSRs contain 32 bits.

So you get those 32 bits, divide them by some number,

And then expect that to work?

I don't think so..

That's just wrong.. the reason you're wanting to have this timer is to
avoid the RAPL MSRs from overflowing and you loosing offsets, right?

But the above is actually forcing the event to create samples on a
totally unrelated time base.

RAPL should fail to create a sampling event since it doesn't have the
capability to trigger overflow interrupts based on its events.

If you want a timer, add one, but don't do this.

If you expect you actually want to sample, use this event as part of a
group and add a sampling event in there and use PERF_FORMAT_GROUP, Matt
was working on patches to make perf-record capable of this.

> +static int rapl_check_unit(void)

Shouldn't that be called: rapl_init_unit()? You're not actually
verifying anything, you're setting-up state.

So you're saying these factors are powers-of-two, please look at
rapl_unit_xlate and try again.

Names please, again 06_2[AD] is useless we could have surmised that by
reading the code, nobody knows which part that is.

a += 4; /* increment by 4 */

quality comments here.

Uhm, hell no!, you get to use type = -1.
